Changes in 2025 Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage

It is important that every Medicare beneficiary be aware of anticipated changes for 2025 with all Medicare Part D prescription drug plans. The Inflation Reduction Act that was signed into law August 16, 2022, has gradually adjusted the Part D program since January 2023. This law will be fully implemented on January 1, 2025.

Although the Inflation Reduction Act was an attempt to lower the cost of prescription drugs, it shifts financial burden from Medicare onto the health plans and manufacturers. This transfer of cost will negatively affect all Medicare Part D drug plans going forward.

What can we expect:
• Higher premiums (particularly with standalone drug plans)
• Fewer plan choices
• More restrictive formularies
• More drug utilization management
• Reduction of some benefits in Medicare Advantage plans

More so than any other year, it is imperative that we prepare early for annual enrollment period that starts October 15th through December 7th. Although we are forbidden to talk about plan specifics before October 1, 2024, we can accomplish several things prior to October 1st that will allow for a smooth AEP:

1) Updated drug list
2) Updated doctor list
3) Decide which plan benefits are important to you (Medicare Advantage clients)
4) Complete a Permission to Contact Form (required for future clients)
5) Complete the required Scope of Appointment (required for everyone)
6) If you are on a standalone PDP, decide the maximum monthly premium you can afford

Some of you, due to the anticipated increase in premiums of standalone prescription drug plans (those of you on Medicare Supplements with a standalone prescription drug plan), may want to compare your current health plan with a Medicare Advantage option. Although this will not be plan specific, we can discuss the difference between your options so that you can make the best choice for you when the time comes.
